An electrochemical α‐C─H functionalization of nitramines enables the synthesis of molecules containing bifunctional energetic heterocycles with promising properties. A telescoped, HNO3‐free sequence involving nitration and azolation steps offers a safer, modular, and scalable platform for the synthesis of energetic compounds.

Alcohol dehydrogenases (ADHs) are best known for reducing ketones to chiral alcohols, but their oxidative potential is rarely exploited. Here, we show that selected ADHs catalyze newly discovered promiscuous transformations: the oxidative coupling of primary alcohols with amines or thiols, enabling the direct and efficient synthesis of a broad range of

Interactional Features of (RO)4Ti Species and Their Zr and Hf Analogues
Computational and experimental studies reveal that Group 4 tetroxides form a new type of σ‐hole interaction with N and O nucleophiles, which we propose to name “titan bonds” (TnBs). These insights into Ti, Zr, and Hf interactions may aid in the rational design of more selective catalysts for aldol and oxidation reactions. Abstract Tetroxides of Group 4

Modular Synthesis of Pyritide‐Inspired Macrocycles Featuring Bipyridine Motifs
A pyritide‐inspired build/couple/pair strategy yields a diverse macrocycle library. This approach expands chemical space and enables the discovery of 6paW, a potent anti‐ferroptotic agent. Abstract Macrocycles represent a promising class of drug‐like scaffolds with unique structural features and the ability to engage challenging targets such as protein–
